inoperative tachs

[Robert Clauss <beckyco@domain.elided>]

A tach in a mid 80's Spider can act up sporadically due to the drive cable
backing out of the sending unit (mounted just in front of the master
cylinder). The factory speedo cable is actually a bit short. A quick, cheap
check (and fix) is to disconnect the cable, slide a couple of tiny o rings
over the cable down to the cable sheath, then reinstall. The o rings push
the sheath back, forcing more of the cable into the sending unit. Fixed
mine years ago.
